Pros
Decent starting wage, good benefits and PTO policy, non storm schedules, co workers.....
Cons
This is an excellent job if you don't have kids, a spouse or a life. There is a lot of mandatory, often last minute OT - for storms, potential storms, there might be a storm, call volume......you never know if you will leave on time or be forced to work 12 - 16 hours. They may require you to cancel your vacation if there is a storm. Amd yes they tell you this up front BUT they don't include things like hey, we have the right to force you to cancel plans (including important events) vacations, be on call 24/7 (your ratings are heavily based on this ), etc. They are not very flexible nor fair in regards to this. Management is also very hypocritical and micro managing. Ultimately you are just a number who is easily replaced. They are constantly hiring and turmover is very high. There is also noticable favortism when it comes to promotions.
